How To Identify Chronic Pain
While occasional neck pain is common, it's crucial to recognize the signs of chronic neck pain. If you experience neck pain that:

It's important to seek professional medical attention to determine the underlying cause and develop a treatment plan.

Based on this evaluation, your chiropractor will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
